Re: Ridiculous Games Contest 2024

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: An extension of one month was offered but almost unilaterally rejected! However a couple of our contestants could use an extension, so I'm changing the submission date to April 7th (still 9pm PST) instead of March 31st! This is an extension of one week, and there will be no f...

Re: RGC Referendum!!

A lot of people are saying they're fine with the current deadline. I'll give folks more time to weigh in.

Also it's come to my attention that what precipitated the new referendum was caused by a bit of a misunderstanding that started back in January. Pay my comments about Spoon no mind

Re: RGC Referendum!!

It's come to my attention that Spoon intends to let Heart Slam go for five whole months. This kinda matters because he's the one who made me rush the Ridiculous Games Contest in the first place so that he could start Heart Slam at a 'critical' time of year. Perhaps you see my irritation. So I'm cons...

Re: Ridiculous Games Contest 2024

Good rule of thumb is, if you can upload it to Slime Salad without the mods removing it, you're probably fine.

If you think it might be a bit on the "mature" side then definitely put a warning on the game page.

Re: Ridiculous Games Contest 2024

My ridiculous friends, we are five weeks out. Now, I know you want to be secretive! -- I was too before my divorce ... with willy wonka... when he wouldn't give me a ride on his wonkavator. What were we... oh -- let's see some teasers! Best teaser gets one automatic free point in my scoring.

Re: RGC Referendum!!

I would say I TOO am dubious on the stipulation that you can vote for your own game in the case of it being made by a team, so for that would it be acceptable to folks if I say that if you're part of a team only one person on the team can vote for their game? Went ahead and did that. As for an auto...

Re: RGC Referendum!!

I'm willing to make some slight alterations to the voting system but only if we're still super far away from the deadline. I asked for feedback repeatedly over the referendum period and didn't get any feedback, so I had to go with established tradition :hurr:

Re: RGC Referendum!!

On voting, if nobody's got feedback on that I'm going to default on Fenrir's system from his RGC: Anybody can vote Simple 1-5 score for each game You can vote for your own game No score for something and I will assume you didn't play it and it gets a 3 from you. So play and score it if you feel like...

Re: RGC Referendum!!

We've established a consensus on the whole "cutscene" idea entirely and I'm gonna drop that from the requirements!

But if that concept tickled your fancy you're more than welcome to make the legally-dubious soap opera of your dreams. <3
